Crazy Love
Victoria Vox Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But this is on my mind
I've told myself it's over
And not worth my time
Cuz I tried too hard
To make it work
And all the while
You were focused on her
This is crazy, love
Crazy love
This is crazy, love
You don't see eye to eye
But you sure want to
The constant push and pull
Will start to wear on you
Cuz you tried too hard
To make it work
And all the while
She put herself first
This is crazy, love
Crazy love
This is crazy, love
We can try to make
Sense of it all
The crazy love
For which we fall
We can try to make
Sense of it all
The crazy love
For which we fall
This is crazy, love
Crazy love
This is crazy, love
This is crazy, love
Crazy love
This is crazy, love
The lyrics to Victoria Vox's song "Crazy Love" depict a tumultuous and seemingly one-sided love affair. The singer expresses their doubts about whether their feelings are worth putting into a song, suggesting a sense of disbelief or confusion about the situation. They acknowledge that they have tried hard to make the relationship work, but it becomes evident that their efforts were in vain as their partner was focused on someone else.
The repeated phrase "this is crazy, love" serves as a chorus that underscores the chaotic nature of the emotional connection being described. The use of the word "crazy" implies that the love is irrational, illogical, and perhaps even unhealthy. Despite the lack of reciprocation or shared perspective between the singer and their partner, there is a sense of desperation to make sense of the situation and find some semblance of understanding. The final repetition of "this is crazy, love" reinforces the intensity and frustration present in the relationship.
Overall, the lyrics of "Crazy Love" highlight the unbalanced and confusing dynamics of a love that feels both significant and destabilizing. The song captures the complexities and challenges often associated with deep emotional connections, emphasizing the conflicting emotions, efforts, and a desire to make sense of it all.

I doubt it's worth a song
I don't think it's worth expressing through music
But this is on my mind
But I can't stop thinking about it
I've told myself it's over
I've convinced myself it's finished
And not worth my time
And not worth investing my time in
Cuz I tried too hard
Because I put in too much effort
To make it work
To try to make it successful
And all the while
And all this time
You were focused on her
You were paying attention to her instead
You don't see eye to eye
You don't agree
But you sure want to
But you definitely want to
The constant push and pull
The perpetual back-and-forth
Will start to wear on you
Will begin to exhaust you
Cuz you tried too hard
Because you put in too much effort
To make it work
To try to make it successful
And all the while
And all this time
She put herself first
She prioritized herself
We can try to make
We can attempt to understand
Sense of it all
Make sense of the entire situation
The crazy love
The irrational love
For which we fall
That we dive into
This is crazy, love
This love is absurd
Crazy love
Irrational love
This is crazy, love
This love is absurd
This is crazy, love
This love is absurd
Crazy love
Irrational love
This is crazy, love
This love is absurd
